Babies in Sweden can't be named Jehad -- Jehad in Malmö thinks it's odd

Jehad Hameed from Malmö finds the decision somewhat comical.

Lyssna: Babies in Sweden can't be named Jihad — Jehad in Malmö thinks it's odd

The Swedish Tax Agency is rejecting parents' attempts to name their newborn child Jihad or Jehad, saying those names may cause discomfort for the child.

The name is common in the Middle East and means "struggle" or "striving", and around 900 people have it as their first name in Sweden. The agency's decision only applies to newborns.

Jehad Hameed says he is proud of his name, and thinks the decision is a little strange and somewhat comical.
